Michael Mior commented on CALCITE-2569:
---------------------------------------
[~julianhyde] I think the ANY/IGNORE distinction is potentially confusing but I
don't think I have a better suggestion. Also, could you explain the dependency
issue referenced in GeoFunctions? Aren't both this and SqlGeoFunctions in core?

> Reporter: Julian Hyde

> Priority: Major
>
> UDFs that are table functions must implement SqlTableFunction and have CURSOR
> as their return type,
> Validate that table functions are not used in contexts that require scalar
> functions, such as the SELECT clause.
> Change operand type ANY to mean 'scalar expression of any type (but not a
> cursor)', and add operand type IGNORE to mean skip validation - for an
> operand that is not an expression. TABLE is one of the few operators that
> accepts a CURSOR operand.
